ARTHUR ALEXANDER / DENISE AND ABE – YOU BETTER LISTEN TO ME / AIN’T THAT LOVIN’ – CHANT / WESTBOUND – ACE

The Ace anniversary soul release is rich in music history. Westbound Records took over as Detroit’s main label once Motown headed west. In the early 70s. Westbound’s biggest acts were the Detroit Emeralds and Denise LaSalle, who regularly hit the R&B and Hot 100 charts. It was a good idea to team Denise with Abe Tilmon, the Emeralds’ lead singer, and ‘Ain’t That Lovin’’ was given the full string overdub treatment. However, the company inexplicably shelved the project and it was left to Kent to ride to the rescue, releasing this mid-tempo dance track on CD in 2010. Here it is on 45 as it was meant to be.
